By having a Nintendo Account, you can dive into the My Nintendo rewards program, earning points every time you buy qualifying digital games through the Nintendo eShop. Not just that, interacting with Nintendo apps on your smart device or logging into various Nintendo services, including the eShop, can also score you points.
For those eager to explore purchasing download games, the official Nintendo website has all the information you need. And if you’re looking to expand your library with more top-notch downloadable content, the Nintendo eShop website is brimming with options.
Remember, for the most current pricing details, you should always check the Nintendo eShop or visit specific game pages. If you’re interested in downloading demos to try before you buy, a Nintendo Account registration is necessary to do so on your Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop. Note that terms and conditions do apply.
To purchase and download games or demos directly from the official website, make sure your Nintendo Account is linked to your Nintendo Switch. Your console needs to be registered as the active download console by accessing the Nintendo eShop on it at least once. Automatic downloads require your system to be up-to-date, connected to the internet, and have enough storage space. For further details, check out the Support section. Any purchases or demo downloads made through the Nintendo website are handled through the Nintendo eShop.
